Sleeping Beauty

The last challenge posted for the Sweet Peach Crop Shop anniversary celebration was to use rub ons.  I have a difficult time with rub ons, so I don't use them very often.  This was a great chance for me to dig some of them out and use them up.  The flourish, blue flower, and birds are all rub ons.  I used a sketch from Sketchy Thursdays.

Thank you

It is the last day of the month which means coming to the end of Sweet peach Crop Shops month long of anniversary challenges.  What a fun month it has been and I have loved all the different challenges posted over there.  I think there are only about 2 I haven't done and the day isn't over with yet.  This challenge was to make a thank you card.  I'm not a big card maker but I'm happy with it.  I started off using a sketch from My Sketch World, though it didn't really end up looking anything like the sketch.

Basketball

The wonderful month full of anniversary challenges is almost over at Sweet Peach Crop Shop, how sad.  I've really enjoyed all of their challenges.  This layout was based off of the latest sketch challenge.  I decided to take a different approach to basketball pictures and stayed away from any sports lines, and instead used the For the Record collection.  It definitely has a very different look from my normal sports pages.

monsters

Well inking is something I've done for quite awhile, but I'm wondering how I lived without misting.  I love my mist and really need more.  The challenge at Sweet Peach Crop Shop was to do a layout with misting and inking.  The background paper has been misted with Maya mist and I inked just about everything including the monsters to give them a distressed look!  I used a sketch from Sketch Inspiration.

May Kit Sneak Peak

I just love the May kit from Scrap Friendzy.  I was lucky enough to get chosen to work with it this month.  If you love Bo Bunny you will love this kit.  This is just a tiny peak of one of my layouts I did.

With Love

I just love pictures of kids walking away from you holding hands.  I wonder if it is because you can't see their faces so they can't grimace at you, or stick their tongue out, or make one of the many other faces they do every time I get the camera out.  Since they are holding hands it makes it harder to run away too :)  I found a new site for this great sketch at Design Dollies.

Going for a Ride

I think the kids enjoyed the dinosaurs outside of Natural Bridge Caverns more than they actually enjoyed the caves.  You couldn't touch anything in the caves, where as the dinosaurs you could climb all over!  I used a sketch from Sandy over at Scrap Friendzy.
